sets strategies maximize input from
primary markets and establishes priorities for the
technical and conformity assessment work the
IEC, improving the Commission’s response the
needs innovative and fast-moving markets. Section weighs
what this may all mean for the IEC, its stakeholders
and its standardization work. The project team
preparing this paper included representatives from
utilities, consultancies, research organizations,
electrical equipment manufacturers, and
standardization agencies. This paper
considers all three issues, paying particular
attention what they might mean for the IEC and
its own standardization work.
As grids change and loads electrify, MVDC
technologies offer potentially promising answers
to many the challenges electricity system
operators face. Serious effort will
certainly required develop the technology
and regulate and set standards for it. The series developed
by the IEC Market Strategy Board (MSB), whose
members help identify the principal technological
trends and market needs the IEC’s fields of
activity. Section concludes
the paper with several recommendations for the
IEC and MVDC stakeholders around the world.
.
1. Having introduced the basics of
MVDC technology and grid operations, Section 6
looks the global status MVDC, showcasing
several leading MVDC projects.
This paper aimed broad audience: from those
with simple interest how the power system is
going change, the organizations charged with
developing and following the standards necessary
to facilitate the uptake technologies such as
MVDC, while maintaining the supply reliability and
performance are accustomed to.3 Structure
This introduction and background constitute
Section one this white paper. This paper initial step toward
understanding the promise MVDC technology
and realizing its benefits. The series is
intended assist the IEC’s continuing contribution
to solving challenges electrotechnology through
its own standardization work and conformity
assessment services. Section reviews
the incredible transition facing power systems
around the world and the challenges this transition
brings. Section examines the barriers
that need overcome from technical
development standardization setting before
MVDC technology will ready for widespread
deployment.
This paper part ongoing series white
papers reflecting and analyzing new technologies
and global industry changes.15
Background and introduction
(through the distribution electricity large
vessels) industries, these applications are beyond
the scope this paper. Section 4
details MVDC technologies and compares
their operation today’s grid technologies
and practices. Section introduces the MVDC concept
and what MVDC grid might look like
